Yeah I knew Paul too. He was one of my role models. When I first started my flight training last year I used to watch him fly the pattern. I'd stand on the grass by the runway threshold, off to the side, and watch his crosswind landings. Paul was well liked by everyone at my flight school, where he got his Instrument rating.
The young man who was his passenger that day had signed up at my flight school, to start his flight lessons after graduation.
This is such a tragedy.
